Weekly Insider's Lunch with Watson Brown begins today

Sep 09, 2013

Fans invited to hear head coach give
the “inside” scoop on Golden Eagles

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Fans of Tennessee Tech football who
would like to go “inside” the Golden Eagles each week
with head coach Watson Brown are invited as he hosts a weekly
Football Insiders’ Lunch each Monday during the 2013
season.

The weekly lunch begins today.

The Insiders’ Lunch made its debut in 2009 with Brown
talking about his team and showing video footage with a detailed
explanation of several key plays. The weekly event has proven to be
an extremely popular feature as the veteran coach points out
aspects of plays that many fans might not see while watching the
games.

“I really enjoy showing the video and breaking down the
plays, and I think the people who came to the lunches saw the game
from a new perspective,” Brown said. “They ask
questions and it is always a lot of fun.”

Now in his seventh season as Golden Eagle head coach, Brown will
talk each week about the previous contest and take a look forward
to the next opponent. The lunches will feature a relaxed, informal
setting each Monday in the Eagles’ Nest in Eblen Center.

“These lunches are meant to be a gathering place for
friends of Tech football in a comfortable, casual atmosphere, and
we’ll just spend the hour talking about Golden Eagle
football,” Brown said. “I’ll try to answer any
questions fans have about the team, the games, and Tech football,
and try to keep everyone up-to-date on the program.”

Fans can reserve an Insiders’ Lunch ticket to the regular
season for $110 per person, a cost of just $10 per week for the 11
weekly events. Fans ordering a ticket to the entire season of the
Insiders’ Lunch can include it with their season ticket
order, or purchase the meals separately.

The meals will be catered by Chartwell’s, Tech’s
on-campus food service.
